Turkmen Science Supports Country’s Transport Infrastructure.
Turkmenistan’s Technology Center of the Academy of Sciences is leading the way in innovative technologies, according to Director Durdymyrad Gadamov. Speaking at the Ashgabat transport forum ITTC – 2023, he outlined how the center’s laboratory of geographic information systems – GIS is carrying out work on deciphering remote sensing data and creating various thematic and interactive maps. Gadamov explained that GIS is the optimal platform for solving complex problems in the field of transport. The center uses modern GIS technologies to create monitoring systems that allow collecting, processing, and presenting operational information in real time. Additionally, GIS has become a valuable tool in the management of air and land segments of air transport, railway logistics, and sea and river navigation. The set of tools for creating and combining databases with the capabilities of their geographic analysis and visualization makes GIS stand out from other information technologies. Its ability to create monitoring systems that can quickly respond to emergency situations makes GIS crucial for the optimal management of transport systems.
